Well, I'm in hot water with lots of folks because the last webinar I offered here quickly exceeded the event's technical capacity. Not to fear, I've been doing some arm twisting and have been promised a version on You Tube in the not so distant future. And with that being said, here comes another online opportunity on a very timely subject: Next Generation 9-1-1.
- Background: The “State of 911” webinars are held every other month and were established to help the national transition to NG9-1-1. Federal agency representatives, 9-1-1 stakeholders, and state and local 9-1-1 professionals share presentations and participate in discussions to smooth the way for agencies currently in transition.
- Up Next: Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) and the Regional Emergency Communications Coordination Working Groups (RECCWGs)
- When: Thursday, March 27
- Time: 11-12 PM Central
- Registration: Required
Additional details and registration are available at the link below:

Of course the answer is US National Grid. Start with 100 meter squares and work in to 10 meter squares. Any Lat/Long display solution is a loser.
